Wummer Woman

This may be the most fun thing that I have ever made. When I was a kid, I used to have an awesome Wonder Woman bathing suit. So when BB told me that she wanted to be "Wummer Woman" for Halloween, I was so excited!

I knew that I wanted to make a costume for her. But as it turns out, there just weren't a lot of Wonder Woman costume ideas that I was happy with.

I showed her examples of some that had tu-tus, but she wanted the "real Wummer Woman bottoms."

I've been working on this one for weeks. I had a general idea in mind to start out with. But the project evolved as I went along because I kept finding more pieces to add.

I bought BB a long-sleeve tan colored leotard and tights to wear underneath her costume if it is cold. But I didn't let her wear those today because most of her tights only last about 10 minutes before she gets a hole in them.

I will be posting a tutorial soon. But I just couldn't wait to post these photos. Wummer Woman looks like she is ready for action!

OH my goodness! This is the cutest costume ever! If I had a little girl I would make this in a heartbeat. And your little girl is owning it perfectly! (Found you through Young and Crafty's Free for All and I'm most definitely following you for this point forward)

Oh my gosh! What a cute little Wummer Woman! That costume is adorable {as is your model} and so creative. LOVE! I am featuring costumes next week from my Throwback Thursday party, and I would love to have you link up so I can feature you! I hope to see you there and thanks for sharing :) http://www.hubbymademe.com/throwback-thursday-no-15/

Love! Love the costume! you did a great job with it! And I agree that the real deal looks much better than if you would have gone with a tutu. I mean, tutus are cute, but this version is just classic. Cheers!

This is so cool - you did an amazing job with this Wonder Woman costume!
